Multiple ID's?

[jkwleisemann]

Here's a question for you.

Villain A is a very public figure - a respected member of the clergy and political figure. He is also a supervillain in his 'spare time,' something that he obviously tries very hard to avoid getting out, and isn't fully aware of himself.

Now, what I'm trying to figure out is this. Would it be acceptable to put both Secret and Public ID on a character like this? He doesn't have a full-fledged multiform, but he has a *very* public identity in his 'normal' identity, with all the disadvantages that entails... and a very secret identity other times.

Or should I use Secret and Famous, or Public and Dark Secret?

Famous and Secret ID sounds best to me. It would be very hard for him to keep this secret if he has a truly public life (Public ID). Part of Public ID is that people generally know where you are and what you are doing all the time. Even with Famous you get some of that, so it should still be extra-challenging for him to maintain his secret ID. All it takes is for one papparazi or what have you to happen to be around when he is leaving his residence as Villain X, and that will be all she wrote.

Thanks, and repped. :)

Almost like multiple personalities? Jeckle/Hyde? I would go with multiform, different character sheets, Public ID on one, Secret ID on the other.
